Weird Tales vol. 23, no. 5 (May 1934)
The guy is holding the knife rather noncommittally, as if to say "I have this knife, would that scare you at all …?”
Cannot unsee, her bejewelled bra thingy looks like a goofy bird looking out at us.

@SFFMagazineCovers Monster looks like he was asking around if someone had a knife he could borrow to open his shipment from Amazon, and dude is holding out his knife, saying, “You’re welcome to use mine.”
@SFFMagazineCovers at a glance, I thought he was flipping the bird at the birdman
@SFFMagazineCovers "Oy! Mate! She doesn't want to hear about your bloody offshore crypto empire, just bugger off now, eh, chief?"
@SFFMagazineCovers “The guy” being Conan the Barbarian… With his pirate queen Bêlit.
@RobinMarx @SFFMagazineCovers oh wow yeah that's Queen of the Black Coast can't believe I didn't spot that. Doesn't look a lot like the traditional Conan
@jake4480 @RobinMarx @SFFMagazineCovers He was starving. Sailing the Black Coast is hard work!
@SFFMagazineCovers The "guy" is Conan! Oh, i LOVE this issue. And the cover story, of course.
And, even i love Margaret Brundage covers, well...she wasn't the best depicting Conan when she did.
@SFFMagazineCovers for me, it looks like a mouse
@SFFMagazineCovers +1 for goofy owl here. why is her breast under her arm? alien?
